On May 8, 2025, payment giant Stripe announced the launch of stablecoin financial account services, supporting USDC and their own Bridge-issued USDB stablecoin, covering over 100 countries worldwide, allowing businesses to hold, send, and receive USD stablecoin funds, and enabling cross-border payments. This move follows Stripe's acquisition of Bridge for $1.1 billion last year, further deepening its layout in the cryptocurrency field. The service not only supports stablecoins but also allows for the conversion between fiat and cryptocurrencies, aimed at enhancing the efficiency and flexibility of global business payments. However, major markets such as China, the United States, and Japan are not yet included in the support list, indicating that its global expansion still faces regulatory challenges. This move by Stripe is seen as a significant advancement in the application of stablecoins!
